  • The major course requirement applies independently to each Major selected in the program
  • There is a common first semester for full-time students

  • Students are required to have completed or be currently studying the foundation units before enrolling in second year courses.
  • The student's cumulative GPA will be taken into account at the time of application. A cumulative GPA of less than 2.0 is considered beneath the standard for admission to major.
